Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.6
GPA, above 35 of the 69 other daily planner apps we grade
Sectograph is a visual planner that draws the day as a clock face, with each calendar event shown as a sector as wide as the event is long. It reads events from the calendars already on the device and works out the gaps between them and the time left until the next one. The Android app is free with in-app purchases, and the iPhone and iPad app is a paid download.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Sectograph, taken from its own pages and our grades.
No store rating on record, but there's nothing to set up: it reads the calendars already on your phone and draws them on the dial.
- 1
Best for seeing your calendar as a clock face
Sectograph turns your calendar into a clock: every event is a slice of the dial, as wide as it is long, so you can see what's next and the gaps between meetings.
- 2
What it costs
Paid plans start at $3.99 one-time on iOS; Android in-app purchases $1.99 to $99.99 per item.
- 3
There is a free plan
The Android app is free to install from Google Play and includes the clock-face planner, a home screen widget and three free widget themes.
- 4
It runs on 2 platforms
Android and iOS.
- 5
Clock-face timeline
The day is drawn as a 12-hour dial, or 24-hour if you prefer, with each event placed at the hours it happens and sized to its duration.
- 6
Free time and countdowns
Sectograph calculates the gaps between events and the time from now until the next one, and updates the view as time passes.
- 7
Reads existing calendars
On Android it reads Google Calendar and the device's local calendars. Microsoft Outlook calendar support is labelled beta.
- 8
A 2.6 GPA, above 35 of 69
That is against the other daily planner apps we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.

A daily planner at its plainest is today's tasks laid along a timeline.

The report card
Best for seeing your calendar as a clock face
Sectograph turns your calendar into a clock: every event is a slice of the dial, as wide as it is long, so you can see what's next and the gaps between meetings. It's free on Android and $3.99 once on iPhone. But it only shows your day and doesn't plan it, with no to-do list, no web or desktop version, Outlook still in beta, and Android extras it never itemizes.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | A | $3.99 once on iPhone and iPad, with no in-app purchases after that, when a year of this category's middle subscription is about $72. On Android the app is free, with optional extras from $1.99 to $99.99 that the Play listing never itemises. |
| Free plan and trial | C | On Android it's free to install, with the dial, a home screen widget and three widget themes, but what the paid extras unlock isn't spelled out anywhere. On iPhone there's nothing free at all: $3.99 comes before you see it. |
| Features | C | It does its one thing completely: a 12 or 24-hour dial with countdowns, the gaps between events worked out, a home screen widget and a Wear OS app. But that's a far smaller job than planning a day. It only shows what's already on your calendar, there's no to-do list, and Outlook support is still marked beta. |
| Ease of use | B | No store rating on record, but there's nothing to set up: it reads the calendars already on your phone and draws them on the dial. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Phones and watches only: Android, iPhone, iPad and Wear OS, with no web or desktop version. It reads Google Calendar and your device's own calendars, with Outlook in beta, and that's the whole list. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Sectograph is for
- Fits if you read a clock faster than a list of appointments
- Works for back-to-back meeting days on an Android widget or Wear OS watch
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want a to-do list, because it only shows what's on your calendar
- Not for you if you plan at a desk, as there's no web or desktop version
- Not for you if you want to try it free on iPhone, where it's a $3.99 paid download
- Watch out: Android extras run from $1.99 to $99.99 and the Play listing never says what each unlocks
- Tight if your calendar is Outlook, whose support is still labeled beta on Android
Good to know
Good for
- People who read an analog clock faster than a list of events
- Android users who want their schedule on a widget or Wear OS watch
- Seeing free time between meetings and the time left in the current one
Worth knowing
- It is not a to-do list. Its Google Play listing describes it as a planner that visualizes what is already on your calendar.
- The Android app is free with in-app purchases the listing does not itemize, while the iOS app costs $3.99 up front.
- Outlook calendar support is labelled beta on Android, and there is no web or desktop version.
- The vendor's website is a single page with store links, so feature and price details come from the store listings.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Your call
A daily planner at its plainest is today's tasks laid along a timeline.
You could make the core of Sectograph for yourself: calendar and time blocking. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. At $3.99, paid once, it costs less than the weekend it would take to replace, which is the argument for keeping it.
What you could make
- Calendar and time blocking: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- Hooks into the device itself: a Wear OS app and widgets.
What this rests on. Sectograph’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
